U.S. Diplomat Upset By NHK’s Depiction of BLM Protesters
Meanwhile in Japan:
The ranking U.S. diplomat in Japan criticized public broadcaster NHK on Tuesday for its “offensive and insensitive” cartoon depiction of Black Lives Matter demonstrations in the United States.
NHK posted the 85-second promotional video, or teaser, for its weekly children’s program “This Makes Me Understand! The World Now” on Sunday via Twitter.
Joseph M. Young, the chargé d’affaires ad interim for the U.S. Embassy in Tokyo, found fault with the video’s depiction of black people and oversimplification of protests against racism and police brutality, often marked by rioting but later by peaceful demonstrations, that erupted after the May 25 killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

Well, it’s certainly true the Japanese used stereotypical fashions from the 70s and left out the white Antifa protestors… but it’s no more offensive than Democrat women wearing kente scarves…
The truth hurts
I agree. That is highly “offensive and insensitive”.
I am so triggered by NHK promoting a false stereotype that I literally cannot breathe. In hours and hours of video, there has not been a single guitar player amid all the looters and arsonists.
How many of the rioters were wearing neckties? Just wondering …
The best video on the internet now is the black woman screaming that those Ay-rab mutherfúckers is protectin’ they cheap-àss Chinese shìt with AyyKay-fo’ty7s when they is in our neighborhood lookin’ to take black lives when that shìt be insured.
Should be easy to find. Google something like “black woman angry she can’t loot”.
When you see this, you will realize a couple of big chunks of what is wrong with America right now.
I saw it. 🙁
Just heard the Secretary of Defense has announced personal firearms are now going to be banned on base.
This is a 180 out from two years ago. Trump needs to fire this piece of shyte. But I suppose he has a lot of fish to fry at the moment.
Banning fireams on base will guarantee successful terror attacks and impact morale and recruitment in time of war. That is part of the definition of Treason under 18 US Code Chapter 115…
Not that it matters. I have more confidence in Moon’s prosecuters than I do the US DoJ…
